Donald Trump knows sweet fuck all about Canada and Canadians. Does he really think “Canada will love us again”? Trump and his henchmen have turned most Canadians against the United States. The sense of betrayal is real.

One can only surmise what Prime Minister Carney is thinking about the demented orange bloat.

Donald Trump is calling for the jailing of his political opponents. Is the United States the land of the free and the home of the brave? No. Is he making America great again? No.

"You wanna talk about job creation, Mr. Speaker? The only job the member opposite, the leader opposite (Poilievre)
has ever created was the one he left open for the Member for Carleton in the last election." - #LPC MP Wayne Long. #cdnpoli

Stephen Miller said "plenary authority," which is a fancy way of saying "absolute power of the kind Hitler enjoyed," and then goes silent, probably because he jizzed his pants.

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.

It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out.

Donald Trump: Canada will love us again.

Me: Not in your lifetime, you bloated orange turd.

Food for thought: If Pierre Poilievre won the election instead of Mark Carney, we would be on the road to American statehood—with Poilievre as the governor.

Chris Barber and Tamara Lich were sentenced to twelve months of house arrest followed by six months of curfew. Is this a slap on the wrist or what?

Being diplomatic is not ass-kissing. When the prime minister is dealing with an American president who’s an unhinged maniac, it’s advantageous to handle things with finesse.

So Pierre Poilievre thinks he knows better than a prime minister with a PhD in economics from Oxford who was the governor of both the Bank of Canada and Bank of England? Gimme a break.

The prime minister will try to hammer out a deal with the tariff-loving orange bloviator when they meet today.

Tamara Lich and Chris Barber are to be sentenced today for their illegal activities with the Freedom Convoy. That Pierre Poilievre and some Conservative MPs support these lawless assholes speaks volumes.

Donald Trump is as racist as they come.

Trump considers cutting US refugee intake to 7,500, focusing on white South Africans, officials say

President Donald Trump is considering admitting far fewer refugee into the U.S. this year – as few as 7,500, and mostly white Afrikaners.

Pierre Poilievre shows his desire for Canada to become the 51st state by wanting to legislate American-style laws. No thanks, let’s keep Canada Canadian.
